I don't mind changing the way i do it, i just need something that works

--- there is a lot more to the script above this
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local mh = mouse.Hit

    ev:FireServer(mh)

local currentmh = mh

mouse:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Hit"):Connect(function()

    if(mh ~= currentmh)then

        mh = mouse.Hit

        currentmh = mh

     print("hit changed")



    wait()
    ev2:FireServer(mh)
    end

    end)

GetPropertyChangedSignal was disabled for Hit because it'd update way too often, IIRC.

You can try and use a loop in RenderStepped to check for it, specifically after user input (Priority 100)

--NOTE: untested
local mouse = game:GetService"Players".LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local mh = mouse.Hit
ev:FireServer(mh)
local currentmh = mh
game:GetService"RunService":BindToRenderStep("MHUpdate",Enum.RenderPriority.Input.Value + 1,function()
    mh=mouse.Hit
    if(mh ~= currentmh)then
        mh = mouse.Hit
        currentmh = mh
        print("hit changed")
        wait()
        ev2:FireServer(mh)
    end
end)
